If the 1st NONHEAD lcluster of a pcluster isn't CBLKCNT lcluster type
rather than a HEAD or PLAIN type instead, which means its pclustersize
_must_ be 1 lcluster (since its uncompressed size < 2 lclusters),
as illustrated below:
HEAD HEAD / PLAIN lcluster type
____________ ____________
|_:__________|_________:__| file data (uncompressed)
. .
.____________.
|____________| pcluster data (compressed)
Such on-disk case was explained before [1] but missed to be handled
properly in the runtime implementation.
It can be observed if manually generating 1 lcluster-sized pcluster
with 2 lclusters (thus CBLKCNT doesn't exist.) Let's fix it now.

Prior to big pcluster, there was only one compressed page so it'd
easy to map this. However, when big pcluster is enabled, more work
needs to be done to handle multiple compressed pages. In detail,
- (maptype 0) if there is only one compressed page + no need
to copy inplace I/O, just map it directly what we did before;
- (maptype 1) if there are more compressed pages + no need to
copy inplace I/O, vmap such compressed pages instead;
- (maptype 2) if inplace I/O needs to be copied, use per-CPU
buffers for decompression then.
Another thing is how to detect inplace decompression is feasable or
not (it's still quite easy for non big pclusters), apart from the
inplace margin calculation, inplace I/O page reusing order is also
needed to be considered for each compressed page. Currently, if the
compressed page is the xth page, it shouldn't be reused as [0 ...
nrpages_out - nrpages_in + x], otherwise a full copy will be triggered.
Although there are some extra optimization ideas for this, I'd like
to make big pcluster work correctly first and obviously it can be
further optimized later since it has nothing with the on-disk format
at all.

Different from non-compact indexes, several lclusters are packed
as the compact form at once and an unique base blkaddr is stored for
each pack, so each lcluster index would take less space on avarage
(e.g. 2 bytes for COMPACT_2B.) btw, that is also why BIG_PCLUSTER
switch should be consistent for compact head0/1.
Prior to big pcluster, the size of all pclusters was 1 lcluster.
Therefore, when a new HEAD lcluster was scanned, blkaddr would be
bumped by 1 lcluster. However, that way doesn't work anymore for
big pcluster since we actually don't know the compressed size of
pclusters in advance (before reading CBLKCNT lcluster).
So, instead, let blkaddr of each pack be the first pcluster blkaddr
with a valid CBLKCNT, in detail,
1) if CBLKCNT starts at the pack, this first valid pcluster is
itself, e.g.
_____________________________________________________________
|_CBLKCNT0_|_NONHEAD_| .. |_HEAD_|_CBLKCNT1_| ... |_HEAD_| ...
^ = blkaddr base ^ += CBLKCNT0 ^ += CBLKCNT1
2) if CBLKCNT doesn't start at the pack, the first valid pcluster
is the next pcluster, e.g.
_________________________________________________________
| NONHEAD_| .. |_HEAD_|_CBLKCNT0_| ... |_HEAD_|_HEAD_| ...
^ = blkaddr base ^ += CBLKCNT0
^ += 1
When a CBLKCNT is found, blkaddr will be increased by CBLKCNT
lclusters, or a new HEAD is found immediately, bump blkaddr by 1
instead (see the picture above.)
Also noted if CBLKCNT is the end of the pack, instead of storing
delta1 (distance of the next HEAD lcluster) as normal NONHEADs,
it still uses the compressed block count (delta0) since delta1
can be calculated indirectly but the block count can't.
Adjust decoding logic to fit big pcluster compact indexes as well.

Big pcluster indicates the size of compressed data for each physical

block (more accurately, 1 logical pcluster)
When big pcluster feature is enabled for head0/1, delta0 of the 1st
non-head lcluster index will keep block count of this pcluster in
lcluster size instead of 1. Or, the compressed size of pcluster
should be 1 lcluster if pcluster has no non-head lcluster index.
Also note that BIG_PCLUSTER feature reuses COMPR_CFGS feature since
it depends on COMPR_CFGS and will be released together.

To deal the with the cases which inplace decompression is infeasible
for some inplace I/O. Per-CPU buffers was introduced to get rid of page
allocation latency and thrash for low-latency decompression algorithms
such as lz4.
For the big pcluster feature, introduce multipage per-CPU buffers to
keep such inplace I/O pclusters temporarily as well but note that
per-CPU pages are just consecutive virtually.
When a new big pcluster fs is mounted, its max pclustersize will be
read and per-CPU buffers can be growed if needed. Shrinking adjustable
per-CPU buffers is more complex (because we don't know if such size
is still be used), so currently just release them all when unloading.

Formal big pcluster design is actually more powerful / flexable than
the previous thought whose pclustersize was fixed as power-of-2 blocks,
which was obviously inefficient and space-wasting. Instead, pclustersize
can now be set independently for each pcluster, so various pcluster
sizes can also be used together in one file if mkfs wants (for example,
according to data type and/or compression ratio).
Let's get rid of previous physical_clusterbits[] setting (also notice
that corresponding on-disk fields are still 0 for now). Therefore,
head1/2 can be used for at most 2 different algorithms in one file and
again pclustersize is now independent of these.

For each available algorithm, there is data followed by 2-byte `length'

With such available algorithm bitmap, kernel itself can also refuse to

lz4 uses LZ4_DISTANCE_MAX to record history preservation. When
using rolling decompression, a block with a higher compression
ratio will cause a larger memory allocation (up to 64k). It may
cause a large resource burden in extreme cases on devices with
small memory and a large number of concurrent IOs. So appropriately
reducing this value can improve performance.
Decreasing this value will reduce the compression ratio (except
when input_size <LZ4_DISTANCE_MAX). But considering that erofs
currently only supports 4k output, reducing this value will not
significantly reduce the compression benefits.
The maximum value of LZ4_DISTANCE_MAX defined by lz4 is 64k, and
we can only reduce this value. For the old kernel, it just can't
reduce the memory allocation during rolling decompression without
affecting the decompression result.

The detail is, considering an online file-backed page, the right half
of the page is chosen to be cached (e.g. the end page of a readahead
request) and some of its data doesn't exist in managed cache, so the
pcluster will be definitely kept in the submission chain. (IOWs, it

Pull idmapped mounts from Christian Brauner:
"This introduces idmapped mounts which has been in the making for some
time. Simply put, different mounts can expose the same file or
directory with different ownership. This initial implementation comes
with ports for fat, ext4 and with Christoph's port for xfs with more
filesystems being actively worked on by independent people and
maintainers.
Idmapping mounts handle a wide range of long standing use-cases. Here
are just a few:
- Idmapped mounts make it possible to easily share files between
multiple users or multiple machines especially in complex
scenarios. For example, idmapped mounts will be used in the
implementation of portable home directories in
systemd-homed.service(8) where they allow users to move their home
directory to an external storage device and use it on multiple
computers where they are assigned different uids and gids. This
effectively makes it possible to assign random uids and gids at
login time.
- It is possible to share files from the host with unprivileged
containers without having to change ownership permanently through
chown(2).
- It is possible to idmap a container's rootfs and without having to
mangle every file. For example, Chromebooks use it to share the
user's Download folder with their unprivileged containers in their
Linux subsystem.
- It is possible to share files between containers with
non-overlapping idmappings.
- Filesystem that lack a proper concept of ownership such as fat can
use idmapped mounts to implement discretionary access (DAC)
permission checking.
- They allow users to efficiently changing ownership on a per-mount
basis without having to (recursively) chown(2) all files. In
contrast to chown (2) changing ownership of large sets of files is
instantenous with idmapped mounts. This is especially useful when
ownership of a whole root filesystem of a virtual machine or
container is changed. With idmapped mounts a single syscall
mount_setattr syscall will be sufficient to change the ownership of
all files.
- Idmapped mounts always take the current ownership into account as
idmappings specify what a given uid or gid is supposed to be mapped
to. This contrasts with the chown(2) syscall which cannot by itself
take the current ownership of the files it changes into account. It
simply changes the ownership to the specified uid and gid. This is
especially problematic when recursively chown(2)ing a large set of
files which is commong with the aforementioned portable home
directory and container and vm scenario.
- Idmapped mounts allow to change ownership locally, restricting it
to specific mounts, and temporarily as the ownership changes only
apply as long as the mount exists.
Several userspace projects have either already put up patches and
pull-requests for this feature or will do so should you decide to pull
this:
- systemd: In a wide variety of scenarios but especially right away
in their implementation of portable home directories.
https://systemd.io/HOME_DIRECTORY/
- container runtimes: containerd, runC, LXD:To share data between
host and unprivileged containers, unprivileged and privileged
containers, etc. The pull request for idmapped mounts support in
containerd, the default Kubernetes runtime is already up for quite
a while now: https://github.com/containerd/containerd/pull/4734
- The virtio-fs developers and several users have expressed interest
in using this feature with virtual machines once virtio-fs is
ported.
- ChromeOS: Sharing host-directories with unprivileged containers.
I've tightly synced with all those projects and all of those listed
here have also expressed their need/desire for this feature on the
mailing list. For more info on how people use this there's a bunch of
talks about this too. Here's just two recent ones:
https://www.cncf.io/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/Rootless-Containers-in-Gitpod.pdfhttps://fosdem.org/2021/schedule/event/containers_idmap/
This comes with an extensive xfstests suite covering both ext4 and
xfs:
https://git.kernel.org/brauner/xfstests-dev/h/idmapped_mounts
It covers truncation, creation, opening, xattrs, vfscaps, setid
execution, setgid inheritance and more both with idmapped and
non-idmapped mounts. It already helped to discover an unrelated xfs
setgid inheritance bug which has since been fixed in mainline. It will
be sent for inclusion with the xfstests project should you decide to
merge this.
In order to support per-mount idmappings vfsmounts are marked with
user namespaces. The idmapping of the user namespace will be used to
map the ids of vfs objects when they are accessed through that mount.
By default all vfsmounts are marked with the initial user namespace.
The initial user namespace is used to indicate that a mount is not
idmapped. All operations behave as before and this is verified in the
testsuite.
Based on prior discussions we want to attach the whole user namespace
and not just a dedicated idmapping struct. This allows us to reuse all
the helpers that already exist for dealing with idmappings instead of
introducing a whole new range of helpers. In addition, if we decide in
the future that we are confident enough to enable unprivileged users
to setup idmapped mounts the permission checking can take into account
whether the caller is privileged in the user namespace the mount is
currently marked with.
The user namespace the mount will be marked with can be specified by
passing a file descriptor refering to the user namespace as an
argument to the new mount_setattr() syscall together with the new
MOUNT_ATTR_IDMAP flag. The system call follows the openat2() pattern
of extensibility.
The following conditions must be met in order to create an idmapped
mount:
- The caller must currently have the CAP_SYS_ADMIN capability in the
user namespace the underlying filesystem has been mounted in.
- The underlying filesystem must support idmapped mounts.
- The mount must not already be idmapped. This also implies that the
idmapping of a mount cannot be altered once it has been idmapped.
- The mount must be a detached/anonymous mount, i.e. it must have
been created by calling open_tree() with the OPEN_TREE_CLONE flag
and it must not already have been visible in the filesystem.
The last two points guarantee easier semantics for userspace and the
kernel and make the implementation significantly simpler.
By default vfsmounts are marked with the initial user namespace and no
behavioral or performance changes are observed.
The manpage with a detailed description can be found here:
1d7b902e28
In order to support idmapped mounts, filesystems need to be changed
and mark themselves with the FS_ALLOW_IDMAP flag in fs_flags. The
patches to convert individual filesystem are not very large or
complicated overall as can be seen from the included fat, ext4, and
xfs ports. Patches for other filesystems are actively worked on and
will be sent out separately. The xfstestsuite can be used to verify
that port has been done correctly.
The mount_setattr() syscall is motivated independent of the idmapped
mounts patches and it's been around since July 2019. One of the most
valuable features of the new mount api is the ability to perform
mounts based on file descriptors only.
Together with the lookup restrictions available in the openat2()
RESOLVE_* flag namespace which we added in v5.6 this is the first time
we are close to hardened and race-free (e.g. symlinks) mounting and
path resolution.
While userspace has started porting to the new mount api to mount
proper filesystems and create new bind-mounts it is currently not
possible to change mount options of an already existing bind mount in
the new mount api since the mount_setattr() syscall is missing.
With the addition of the mount_setattr() syscall we remove this last
restriction and userspace can now fully port to the new mount api,
covering every use-case the old mount api could. We also add the
crucial ability to recursively change mount options for a whole mount
tree, both removing and adding mount options at the same time. This
syscall has been requested multiple times by various people and
projects.
There is a simple tool available at
https://github.com/brauner/mount-idmapped
that allows to create idmapped mounts so people can play with this
patch series. I'll add support for the regular mount binary should you
decide to pull this in the following weeks:

Currently, although set_bit() & test_bit() pairs are used as a fast-
path for initialized configurations. However, these atomic ops are
actually relaxed forms. Instead, load-acquire & store-release form is
needed to make sure uninitialized fields won't be observed in advance
here (yet no such corresponding bitops so use full barriers instead.)

Extend some inode methods with an additional user namespace argument. A
filesystem that is aware of idmapped mounts will receive the user
namespace the mount has been marked with. This can be used for
additional permission checking and also to enable filesystems to
translate between uids and gids if they need to. We have implemented all
relevant helpers in earlier patches.
As requested we simply extend the exisiting inode method instead of
introducing new ones. This is a little more code churn but it's mostly
mechanical and doesnt't leave us with additional inode methods.

The generic_fillattr() helper fills in the basic attributes associated
with an inode. Enable it to handle idmapped mounts. If the inode is
accessed through an idmapped mount map it into the mount's user
namespace before we store the uid and gid. If the initial user namespace
is passed nothing changes so non-idmapped mounts will see identical
behavior as before.

Previously, we played around with magical page->mapping for short-lived
temporary pages since we need to identify different types of pages in
the same pcluster but both invalidated and short-lived temporary pages
can have page->mapping == NULL. It was considered as safe because that
temporary pages are all non-LRU / non-movable pages.
This patch tends to use specific page->private to identify short-lived
pages instead so it won't rely on page->mapping anymore. Details are
described in "compress.h" as well.

EROFS has _only one_ ondisk timestamp (ctime is currently
documented and recorded, we might also record mtime instead
with a new compat feature if needed) for each extended inode
since EROFS isn't mainly for archival purposes so no need to
keep all timestamps on disk especially for Android scenarios
due to security concerns. Also, romfs/cramfs don't have their
own on-disk timestamp, and squashfs only records mtime instead.
Let's also derive access time from ondisk timestamp rather than
leaving it empty, and if mtime/atime for each file are really
needed for specific scenarios as well, we can also use xattrs
to record them then.
